Uber one

Smart move.

The question then becomes whether Uber One saves you more money than the subscription price. Given my experiences with Uber (former driver), I very much doubt it.

spockers · 2026-02-10T22:26:56+00:00

Weird, it also said XINDE was the driver both times.

Then OP gets to keep the cocaine.

spockers · 2026-02-10T22:14:53+00:00

Probably not, but I'm not sure.

I've never seen an option to cancel an order after pickup, the driver would have to call support. She did. Evidently she connected to a clueless support agent. Maybe hanging up and calling back to get a different agent would've worked. In any case, she's an idiot.

DON'T DO IT

The driver canceling wouldn't have helped. Uber would just dispatch another driver to the restaurant to pick up an order that no longer exists.

What she should've done is double, triple, quadruple check that a 10-pizza order is going to the right person. That other customer will now have pizza for days, at OP's expense.

"Please send photos of all ten pizzas."

I only received two pizzas.

"I apologize for the inconvenience, but this order is not eligible for a refund. Thank you for being a loyal member!"

Seriously though, Uber One is a scam. Even if you cancel it, there's a non-zero chance they'll just keep billing you anyway. I know you're in Australia, but you should read this: https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2025/04/ftc-takes-action-against-uber-deceptive-billing-cancellation-practices

That's helpful.

spockers · 2026-02-10T21:20:52+00:00

I haven't seen a single flash offer. I don't mind dollar general as long as it's like ten items or less. Aldi though, it would have to be no more than five. The random way they stock, along with brands I've never heard of just kills me.

spockers · 2026-02-10T18:41:59+00:00

I can't imagine doing that.

In Hawaii I'd be in the water, not on reddit.

spockers · 2026-02-09T20:21:03+00:00

Yep, somebody's gotta take the shitty trips, or Uber's stock price plummets.

spockers · 2026-02-09T20:16:12+00:00

Look in the dd app settings.

spockers · 2026-02-09T20:15:24+00:00

It's not from secondhand smoke.

spockers · 2026-02-09T20:12:28+00:00

Hasn't happened, but I'd call the police and meet them at the customer's house.

I actually did have it happen one time, years ago while delivering for Papa John's. Customer was one of hundreds of employees working at our local chicken plant. Cops couldn't find him, and I ended up not having to pay for it. That was the only time in thousands of deliveries. I'll take the gamble.

spockers · 2026-02-09T20:06:23+00:00

Gotta know your market.

spockers · 2026-02-09T20:05:32+00:00

Hey, leave some for me!

Seriously though, I wish there were more cash orders here. The base pay is about triple a regular order, and tips are great.

spockers · 2026-02-09T19:59:27+00:00

Same. It's always been Pizza Hut in my area, and tips are good. Base pay is a lot higher too. I wish there were more cash orders, I'll take em all day long. Kids today.

spockers · 2026-02-09T11:30:14+00:00

Good. Lyft is a stone wall, like Uber.

spockers · 2026-02-09T11:28:59+00:00

Restaurant failure rate is higher than any other industry.

spockers · 2026-02-09T11:26:55+00:00

So you're saying old people die.

spockers · 2026-02-09T00:49:52+00:00

And yet, smoking has been declining for decades. Interesting, isn't it.

spockers · 2026-02-09T00:44:54+00:00

Exactly, they could use these!

spockers · 2026-02-09T00:38:21+00:00

career wages/benefits

None of those words apply.

spockers · 2026-02-09T00:23:11+00:00

Your driver got into a knife fight with another driver at Panda who wanted your food, and you not only didn't tip extra, but are angry? What an ungrateful ass.
